Following my back-to-back talks with the UK Developers Group and NxtGenUG Southampton, I just like to say thanks those guys for having me, it’s been a great pleasure :-) For anyone interested, here are the links to the slides and the source code I used for the demo.

Problem The square root of 2 can be written as an infinite continued fraction. The infinite continued fraction can be written, ?2 = [1;(2)], (2) indicates that 2 repeats ad infinitum. In a similar way, ?23 = [4;(1,3,1,8)]. It turns out that the sequence of partial values of continued fractions for square roots provide the …
Problem Consider the fraction, n/d, where n and d are positive integers. If n < d and HCF(n,d)=1, it is called a reduced proper fraction. If we list the set of reduced proper fractions for d <= 8 in ascending order of size, we get: 1/8, 1/7, 1/6, 1/5, 1/4, 2/7, 1/3, 3/8, 2/5, 3/7, …
Note: Don’t forget to check out Benchmarks page to see the latest round up of binary and JSON serializers. Follow on from my previous test which showed that the ServiceStack.Text JSON serializer was the top dog in town, I came across a little library called fastJson on codeplex so naturally I had to test it …
Indexer If your have a type that represents a collection of values, adding a custom indexer gives you a natural way to index directly into the object using the .[ ] operator. Take this simple Calendar class for instance, which keeps a map (F# equivalent of a Dictionary<TKey, TValue>) of notes against DateTime values: By …

To install pip on Windows, you need to first install its predecessor – easy install. However, if you’re using a 64-bit distribution of Python then the .exe installers here will give you this error when you run it: This is due to a distutils installer compatibility issue, but all’s not lost, you just need to …
Just a quick note to mention that I will be speaking to local user groups about Aspect Oriented Programming next month: Nov 16th – The Developers Group http://LNK.by/fimbc Nov 17th – NxtGenUG Southampton http://LNK.by/fimbb The session will offer you a high-level overview of AOP and give you some ideas on how it might help you …
Normally, with languages like C# or Java, there is quite a bit of overhead in creating a quick and dirty program to do small tasks like bulk renaming files in a director, etc. This is the spot that is filled by scripting languages like Python, Perl and Ruby, but did you know that you can …
I touched on the topic of memoization in the past in relation to doing aspect-oriented programming with PostSharp, however, with functional languages like F#, Haskell or Erlang there is no such frameworks (although PostSharp should still work with F# to some extent) to help you. That’s not to say that you can’t do AOP in …

In F#, you have the choice of using a struct or a record as a lightweight container for data. The similarities between the two are striking – both are immutable by default, neither can be inherited, and they both offer structural equality semantics by default too! However, there’s a key difference between them, their performance …
